Partnering With us
We are looking to partner with exceptional, strategically aligned leaders, who work relentlessly to bring cost effective programs to scale.
We fund in four core program areas: inspire, identify, accelerate, and enrich. We additionally fund policy and research that amplify these core areas and select international efforts to build math talent systems.
Core Programs
Inspire
Recreational mathematics has inspired generations of future mathematicians and computer scientists, from Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games Column to modern puzzle communities. We are bringing thinking games and recreational math to more homes and classrooms to spark early interest in mathematical thinking.
Identify
Many mathematically talented students are never identified, particularly those from low-income and middle-income backgrounds. We are working to ensure that all students are screened for mathematical talent and developing new assessments that predict future success in science and technology.
Accelerate
Most top math students lack access to coursework that challenges them appropriately. We are working to ensure that every high-ability student in this country has access to accelerated mathematics programs that take them deeper into mathematics more quickly.
Enrich
Most top math students lack access to coursework that challenges them appropriately. We are working to ensure that every high-ability student in this country has access to accelerated mathematics programs that take them deeper into mathematics more quickly.
Funding
We are always looking to find and fund exceptional people doing work that aligns to our mission and programs. We primarily discover potential partners through networking and referrals.
You are welcome to contact partnership@carina.fund directly, but cold outreach typically will not get a response.
We also put out focused requests for proposals, entrepreneur-in-residence (“EIR”) and leadership positions.
